Marriage Story

Marriage Story

60th TIFF: Greek Premiere

Charlie, an Off-Broadway stage director and Nicole, a promising yet underachieving actress, take turns describing what each one cherishes about the other, after ten years of marriage. Their lists are accompanied by a montage of tender moments from their domestic life, which are staged with such resonantly casual detail: like a tender peak through the keyhole of life getting in the way of sentiments. This delicately crafted opening scene sets the tone of a multilayered “divorce drama” of heart-wrenching yet life-inspiring intimacy that delves into an incomprehensible labyrinth: the separation of a couple goes way beyond the simple ending of a story.
